Which one has been found to be the most reliable?
I want to find a company that will customize one so the posts are 10 feet wide.
Anyone know of which company could do this?

I have a four post Revolution lift (made by Rotary). See www.revolutionlifts.com . They make a std size and a larger size lift that I use for the Viper. The website has dimensions of both models. I have seen other posters who have purchased another brand of lift that appeared to be less expensive. (My lift with all accessories was about $5,000).

I purchased a low profile floor jack from www.harborfreight.com.

Hope this helps.

I did a relatively exhausive study for a park and service lift, and I concluded that Backyard buddy and Autolifters of America had the safest designs. I purchased a Autolifters Model: M6 Plus, and I am happy with it. I assume that they are still in business, but in any event I would recommend a Backyard Buddy for "fit and finish"

A question you might want to ask yourself is if you want to be able to drive another car under your viper that is on the lift. Also if you buy a pad or swing arm type lift you do not have to jack the car up to remove the wheels. We use a scissors type pad lift in our shop and find if works out beautiful. beware of all the lift manufactures out there that are selling foreign lifts. There are only a few USA made lift companies.

Check out this web site for USA made lifts and automotive equipment.
